Pros

Cons

Big equipment shortfalls, built from low quality materials, lots of non engine things stop working, even the speakers get wet because of the bad weather seals.

It Will Get You To Work, Is Reliable, But It Doesn't Mean You're Going To Have A Comfortable Trip. —
I will give this truck 4 stars for being reliable enough to not have major work done on it in the last 7 years I've owned it, with 125K miles on it. But the fan blower only works on setting #4, it stalls out when turning sharp turns sometimes in the cold, and lacks acceleration during first 30 seconds of travel. But an induction service next week should clear all of that up. Apart from that, the engine has worked well, no transmission problems, and has reliably gotten me to work for several years.

Pros

Fuel efficient with a bit of power.

Cons

Could be 4 X 4.

Great, Reliable Truck For A Cheap, Competitive Price. —
This truck has a lot more get up and go for what you would expect out of
a small-engined truck. It is a Chevy, so, of course, it is cheap to own and
maintain! It is quite a fun truck to drive as well.

Pros

Good on gas

Cons

smaller truck but its good on gas

Chevy Colorado —
Nice truck runs great and I haven't had any major issues with it. The trucks looks nice and has some getup and go. The only issue i have had with it was i installed a new thermostat at 130000 miles

Nick's Rado —
The truck is red with black 20" wheels. Just recently got the bed Line-X'd...best money i have ever put into
that truck! I have, however, had to rebuild the tranny once (stripped the splines on the sun shell) and had the
tranny replaced the second time it happened.

Pros

Lots of room and fast!

Cons

It doesn't get the best mpg...

Ok Truck —
Well, I have had to replace 3 bulbs in the past 6
months. Last year when it got to 12 below 0, it was in
"limp" mode and it cost over $900 to fix. I also had to
get the brakes done. Other than that, it is pretty
freaking sweet. 4-door, inline-5, orange with black
trim, and fast as hell!
I have had to bring it in 4 times because the blower would stop
working. Each time I had to pay $100 for my insurance deductible. I
had to being it in last month, no more warranty, and the jerk-off at
Suburban Chevrolet tells me that I have to pay $725 to replace the
resistor, blower motor, and the wiring harness. The problem had
nothing to do with what he said. Chevrolet paints the inside of the
fenders. There is a grounding block that is attached to the passenger
side fender, but because of the paint, it was not grounding properly. I
unbolted it, sanded it down to the bare metal, put on a washer, and the
blower now works. A hell of a lot cheaper than $725!
Chevrolet doesn't seem to give a rat's a** about it's blunder to make a
recall fix for it.

Pros

Better than the competitors in a lot of ways!

Cons

center arm rest and compartment is poorly designed and flimsy!

25

Good Choice —
Like the look interior and exterior. Like the interior space (quite roomy compared to the Toyota, Nissan, Dodge, and Ford. Wish it was a little bit wider. Wish it had a long bed. Good engine power. Good handling. Expensive key's and keyless entry clickers. Expensive steering wheel and crash bag.
